Studying policy diffusion at the individual level: Experiments on nationalistic biases in information seeking

Research & Politics, 2019
The foundational assumptions of policy diffusion relate to the behavior of individual policymakers. However, empirical tests of policy diffusion often focus on the behavior of governments as a whole (and not individuals). We provide a template for how to

NEW FRONTIERS AND DIRECTIONS IN POLICY TRANSFER, DIFFUSION AND CIRCULATION RESEARCH: AGENTS, SPACES, RESISTANCE, AND TRANSLATIONS

Revista de Administração Pública, 2018
Policy transfer, diffusion and circulation studies are a fertile ground for innovation in public policy analysis. In a globalized world, where state boundaries are permeable and public policy travels transnationally, the diffusion of policies is what ...

D2PPO: Diffusion Policy Policy Optimization with Dispersive Loss

CoRR
Diffusion policies excel at robotic manipulation by naturally modeling multimodal action distributions in high-dimensional spaces. Nevertheless, diffusion policies suffer from diffusion representation collapse: semantically similar observations are mapped to indistinguishable features, ultimately impairing their ability to handle subtle but critical ...

Contextualizing the Framing Effects of Policy Adoption: Interstate Competition and Autonomous Vehicle Discourse in the U.S.

Social Sciences
Why do certain frames gain prominence while others become marginalized in public discourse about emerging technologies? Existing research shows that policy adoption serves as a powerful discursive signal that shapes how issues are interpreted.

Diffusion Policy through Conditional Proximal Policy Optimization

CoRR
Reinforcement learning (RL) has been extensively employed in a wide range of decision-making problems, such as games and robotics. Recently, diffusion policies have shown strong potential in modeling multi-modal behaviors, enabling more diverse and flexible action generation compared to the conventional Gaussian policy.
